So this year for Thanksgiving we all got together at Omar's house. The food was excellent! My dish to make: mashed potatoes and gravy. The potatoes turned out delish! If I don't say so myself. Although I know making mashed potatoes is no big deal, it is for me since I am not the best cook.
My mom's turkey was yummy. So juicy and moist. My mom makes the best turkey by far. So enough with the food, because after all Thanksgiving is not just about the food. It's about taking time to think about what we are thankful for. So for me: this year I am thankful for spending this special day around my mom and dad, Zanndra and her husband Mike, Omar, his wife Alma and my niece Aly. Frank, his wife Vero, and my four nephews and niece.
So what else did we do besides eat...sing of course. My dad, and two brothers did what has been a tradition for my dad's side of the family. I remember growing up and hearing my grandparents, aunts and uncles on my dad's side always singing together at holiday gatherings.
So how will I wrap this up, this year I thank God for the opportunity of spending Thanksgiving with my husband, my kids, and extended family. I thank God for health, for providing for our family, for a new job, and for knowing that our family is in his hands. And that is the best place to be.
